Summary: The Assembly Elections Committee met on August 28, 2026, with a quorum present and heard five bills focused on election integrity, campaign transparency, and misleading political content. Chair Pellerin and Assembly Member Berman presented AB 1130, which would strengthen disclosure rules for campaign spending on social media influencers and impose civil penalties for violations, and AB 686, which extends existing law targeting deceptive or manipulated audio/video of political candidates, including deepfakes. Both bills were described as needed to improve transparency and protect voters from deceptive campaign media. The committee also heard AB 282, which would make it a felony to seize or interfere with ballots, election records, or certified voting technology before election results are certified, and AB 1853, which would give elections officials more authority to reject or alter candidate statements in the voter information guide when they contain hateful, irrelevant, or inappropriate material. Supporters of AB 1853, including a representative from the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office, argued that official voter materials should not be used to spread hate or extremist rhetoric. AB 502 was presented as a narrower, constitutionally safer version of AB 2839, limiting remedies and shortening the protected time window for deceptive AI-generated campaign content while preserving protections against deepfakes. All five bills were moved with recommendations that Senate amendments be concurred in; AB 282 was also re-referred to the Committee on Public Safety. The recorded committee votes showed broad support, with AB 1130 passing 7-0, AB 686 5-2, AB 282 5-2, AB 1853 5-0, and AB 502 5-2. After the initial votes, the absent member later added an aye vote on each item, and the chair thanked members and staff before adjourning the hearing.
